7= 16 + 3x
7-16 = 3x
-9 = 3x
x = (-9)/(3)
x = -3
Answer:
not really hehehehehe
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
255
Step-by-step explanation:
total cost paid = fixed cost + total variable cost
total variable cost = distance travelled x variable cost per unit
two equations can be derived from the question
a + 10b = 105 equation 1
a + 15b = 155 equation 2
a = fixed cost
b = variable cost per unit
Subtract equation 1 from 2
5b = 50
b = 10
Substitute for b in equation 1
a + 10(10) = 105
a = 105 - 100 = 5
a = 5
cost of travelling a distance of 25km
5 + 10(25) = 255
